Mafkees Hostel in Rotterdam, Netherlands, Europe

Our sleep-in is a basic accommodation which is clean and safe. It's situated in the center of Rotterdam only 200 meters from Central Station. It's only open in July and August and during the International Filmfestival in January.

'Mafkees' (sorry it's not possible to translate, but it's a sort of crazy sleeping beauty) is the sleep-in of Use-it Rotterdam. In the Mafkees you can relax at the bar and have a drink. We serve meals for only € 5,90. We got vegetarian food and use free range meat in the other meals. It's a great place to meet other travellers and exchange experiences.

We have our beds in 2 big dorms. One for women only (24 beds) and the other mixed dorm (126 beds). Last but not least we have our honeymoon suite. A private room for 2 persons which you can't book up front but if it's free, you can claim it, when you check in. There are a few rules however:
1. You have to be very much in love.
2. You have to kiss in public
3. You are only allowed to spend one night in our suite, the morning after you will have to move back to the dorm.
The good news is you still pay only 10 Euro a night.

You must have your own sleepingbag !!!
(Sheets are available for rent on a limited bases)
